Beard/merkin arrangement collapses after just 4 months

280_jesposito_bcooper_070105_72415915.jpgBradley Cooper and Jennifer Esposito’s beard/merkin marriage has failed after a mere four months. The two B listers were hitched around the holidays last year after what we (and, presumably, Victor Garber) considered a rather surprising courtship.

No word on who’s getting custody of the couple’s numerous failed pilots and TV series, but we do know that Cooper just finished filming a movie with Renee Zellweger. Wait a minute - maybe she needs a new gay husband! And Esposito just shot a pilot with Christina Applegate, so if it goes to series, perhaps the two can commiserate on how hard it is to make a marriage work when your husband is prettier than you.

Hilariously, Cooper’s rep admits that the two have been separated “for quite a while,” which, in a 4-month marriage, kind of suggests that they weren’t really that serious about it in the first place.

    Dweebie as he is, Cooper’s BEGGIN for it. I feel so dirty now…

    So I guess one of them decided that it wasn’t just a phase?

    Is it safe to assume I’m not the only one on planet Earth who would’ve been thrilled to see Bradley Cooper dealt several vicious (and potentially fatal) blows to the groin during his time on Alias?

    I’m not even sure why. It just is.
